Basically a good idea. One big issue is the filesystem. There is no file
staging from the client to the cluster, the Grid Engine needs a shared
filesystem. Even it has "Grid" in its name :-)
Inside of the cluster NFS with hostbased security is probably the only
easily way to go, outside you need additional protection. How do you
handle this situation in your environment?
